Sprint Nextel 800w manual Using Phone Lock, 330

Using Phone Lock

You can lock your phone to prevent unauthorized use of your account. When your phone is locked, you must enter the lock code to make calls (except for emergency numbers and Sprint Customer Service [*2]), to send messages, and to use other wireless features such as browsing the Web.

Tip

During an emergency call, you can see the phone number on your Treo by selecting the onscreen Phone Info button.

1.Make sure your phone is on and that you’re inside a coverage area (see “Turning Your Palm® Treo™ 800W Smart Device On and Off” on page 34).

2.Press Start and select Settings.

3.On the Personal tab, select Phone .

4.Select the Security tab and set any of the following options:

■Auto-lock:Set whether your Treo locks automatically and when this occurs.

■Change Lock Code: Assign or change the lock code used to unlock your phone. (Your default lock code is the last four digits of your wireless phone number. If this doesn’t work, call Sprint Customer Service at

1-888-211-4727. If you change the lock code, select OK to accept your new code.)

5.Press OK .

Tip

If you try to make a call when Phone Lock is on, a box appears and prompts you to enter your lock code to unlock the phone. You do not need to enter your lock code to answer a call.
